Impressive point winner travelled well on rules and hurdles debut when third behind Jasmin De Vaux and The Enabler at Naas in December. He left that well behind when bolting up in a strong Leopardstown maiden hurdle (form has worked out) and he looks a cracking each-way bet for the Supreme.
Majborough is a very warm order for the Arkle but the last 5yo to win it was way back in 2000 and we are going for the more experienced runner here. L’eau Du Sud has winning experience over the Arkle course and distance, is two years older and is unbeaten over fences. He’s the value play.
Impressive Lingstown point winner Final Demand is unbeaten in two starts under rules after demolishing his rivals in the 2m6f Grade 1 Golden Cygnet at the Dublin Racing Festival. He is every bit a chaser but he looks a monster and should be well up to winning this contest.
Third in last year’s Albert Bartlett, Dancing City looks stern opposition to stablemate Ballyburn, and he might even beat him. He made it two from two over fences when seeing off a talented mare in a Grade 3 at Naas and can take the step up in class in his stride.
All three career defeats have been here at Cheltenham but if Jonbon is ever to win a Champion Chase, it will be this year. The nine-time Grade 1 winner won the Tingle Creek and Clarence House cosily latest and this year’s contest doesn’t look that deep at first glance.
He started the season off slowly, but last year’s winner of the race is gradually getting back to the top and looked as good as ever when beating Djelo by 23 lengths over 2m6f at Windsor last time. Djelo since bolted up in the Denman Chase! If the horse that won this last year turns up, he should win.
Joseph O’Brien has got Home By The Lee back to his very best this season, winning the Lismullen Hurdle before landing a Grade 1 at Leopardstown’s Christmas festival. He can lay down a huge challenge to hot favourite Teahupoo.
Unbeaten in four starts between the Flat and hurdles, Hello Neighbour is a huge talent with a huge engine and although visually he doesn’t win by far, he idles once he hits the front. He can be very keen but the hood helped him to settle when winning a Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival. His challenge will have to be timed right but he should come there swinging off the bridle and as long as he doesn’t hit the front too soon, he should take beating.
Thought to be a non-stayer over 3m+ initially, Banbridge put those doubts to bed when coming from miles off the pace to win the King George. He is a speedy horse who stays and is improving, so there’s every chance he can hit the frame here. Whether he can beat Galopin Des Champs or not is another question but he will be waited with for one big lunge and if he does stay, then he has a solid shout.

Situated in the picturesque county of Gloucestershire at Prestbury Park, Cheltenham hosts some of the best jump racing in the UK and is one of the most famous National Hunt venues in the world. We have tips for every meeting which always attracts an abundance of quality, from their opening Showcase Meeting in October, to the final race day in April. Cheltenham boasts a plethora of graded contests throughout the season with 14 at the highest level at the famous festival in March, known as ‘The Greatest Show On Turf’.
Course: There are two tracks at Cheltenham, the Old Course and the New Course. They are both left-handed, testing circuits with the former a mile and a half and the latter half a furlong longer. The hurdles tracks are quite different as on the New Course, there are only two hurdles in the final seven furlongs which makes it more a test of stamina. At the Festival, the Old Course is used on the first two days with the New Course playing host the final couple of days.
Feature Meeting: The Cheltenham Festival is undoubtedly the highlight of the National Hunt season. With four days packed with championship race after championship race, it’s a racing lover’s dream. We provide high-quality Cheltenham tips as well as detailed analysis for every race at the Festival.
Our Cheltenham Festival tips will be posted in the weeks and months before the Festival, focusing initially on the biggest races with the strongest form lines. All our Cheltenham Festival racing tips will be posted as early as possible, although the nature of horse racing declarations means that some (mainly the handicaps) can only be posted the afternoon or evening before.
We make our predictions as a team; each of our expert tipsters spends hours, if not days, researching every race and watching every race in the lead up to the big event. These tips are then discussed in a committee, with the strongest picks for each race being selected as our official Cheltenham Festival tips.
We will have Cheltenham Festival betting tips for every one of the twenty-eight races, with full runner by runner previews as well as the best Cheltenham Festival free bets being offered by the bookmakers.

There are many ways you can place a bet at Cheltenham, whether during the Festival or any other meetings. Below is a list of how to bet on Cheltenham:
Directly on myracing with our partners. With myracing you will be able to access a range of betting partners to place an online bet with one-click betslips from our integrated partners.
Online betting with the bookmakers. Probably the most popular and common formality to bet on the races at the Cheltenham Festival. All you need to do is sign up with a bookmaker, pick your horse by its number, choose what stake you want to put down and what bet you want to place.
Tote Betting. Instead of the bookmakers offering you odds and prices for each horse per race, the Tote will offer you a pooled bet. This means that they will pool the money together for any given race and share this amongst customers with the winning tickets. These pool bets can be done for a single race or across various races with bets such as a Placepot or Scoop6.
Bet On-Course. Betting the good old fashioned way still appeals to some punters. Some of positives include shopping around for the best price on the track, being able to assess racing conditions with your own eyes and, let’s face it, who doesn’t love taking cash right out of the bookies satchels and putting it straight into their own pocket? The negatives are that the majority of these bookmakers do not offers key incentives such as price boosts, best odds guaranteed and extra places, all of which are essential to the every day bettor. The lack of markets compared to the online betting industry, such as ‘to place’ and ‘betting without the fav’, is also another reason that will put off a large number of people betting at the course on the day.
